Dr. Sanjay Gupta has been on a decades-long mission to understand how they do it, and how we can all learn from them.

Sanjay is a dad – of three teenage daughters, he is a doctor - who operates on the brain, and he is a reporter with more than two decades of experience - who travels the earth to uncover and bring you the secrets of the happiest and healthiest people on the planet – so that you too, can Chase Life.
